Imperial IPA 8.3 º 65 IBU

Monkish Brewing Co.

This Double IPA showcases a masterful interplay of Nelson, Citra, Mosaic, and Galaxy hops, delivering an intense sensory experience. The aroma is dominated by the signature white wine and gooseberry notes of Nelson, intertwined with the tropical passionfruit of Galaxy and vibrant citrus of Citra. Mosaic adds layers of berry and stone fruit complexity. A clean, neutral malt base provides just enough support for the aggressive hop character. On the palate, a firm bitterness is balanced by a dry finish, accentuating the hop-forward profile without being harsh. At 8.3% ABV, it exhibits a smooth alcohol warmth that enhances the overall drinkability.

Appearance. Deep gold to light orange (8 SRM). Features a persistent, creamy white head with excellent lacing and a slight haze, though maintaining a generally bright appearance.

Aroma. High intensity hop aroma featuring a complex blend of passionfruit, white grape, lime zest, and blueberries. A supportive, clean, grainy maltiness remains in the background with a neutral fermentation profile and a hint of smooth alcohol.

Taste. Assertive hop flavors of tropical fruit, resin, and citrus zest. Moderately high bitterness that is clean and firm, supported by minimal bready malt character. Drier finish with a lingering, resinous, and fruity hop aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium body with a smooth, velvety texture. Moderate carbonation. Features a gentle, well-integrated alcohol warmth without any harshness or astringency.
